Vastex Shop 3 — A Complete Shop to Start Your Screen Printing Business

Starting a screen printing business means buying a lot of equipment that all has to work together. The Vastex Shop 3 package solves that in one order: a premium, USA-made Vastex shop built around a V-2000 8-color / 8-station press. Expose and dry your screens, print vibrant multi-color designs, flash between colors, and cure production-ready garments — every stage covered by matched, professional gear.

Everything You Need to Print — In One Package

This is a true turnkey shop: the press is included, and so is the equipment to make screens, flash and cure. Here’s the full workflow and how the pieces fit together:

5Automate your flashVastex Auto FlashMakes flashing hands-free: tap a foot pedal and the head rotates over the pallet, holds for your set dwell time, then retracts — consistent cures with no scorching or under-curing while you keep printing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Vastex Shop 3 Package — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Vastex Shop 3 package?
It’s a complete, premium screen printing shop package — a turnkey setup of genuine Vastex equipment built to start or scale a printing business. It includes the press plus everything to expose and dry screens, flash between colors, and cure finished prints.
Is the press included?
Yes — the Vastex V-2000 8-color / 8-station press is the centerpiece. It’s an industrial manual rotary press that prints up to eight colors and is expandable to ten.
Is this a good way to start a screen printing business?
Yes — it’s designed exactly for that. Instead of piecing together a shop from different brands, you get one matched, professional Vastex setup that covers the full production process, can be financed together, and is backed by our support.
What else do I need to start printing?
A way to make film positives (a film-positive printer), a washout booth to develop and reclaim screens, and consumables — emulsion, screens & mesh, inks, squeegees, tape and blank garments. Tell us your plans and we’ll build the full list.
How many colors can it print?
Up to eight colors on eight stations with the included V-2000, and the press is expandable to ten colors as your business grows.
What’s the difference between the Air Flash and the Auto Flash?
The Air Flash is the flash-cure unit that gels plastisol between colors and cures water-based/discharge inks. The Auto Flash is an automation upgrade that rotates the flash over the pallet hands-free via foot pedal for consistent cures.
Can I buy the pieces separately?
Yes — every item links to its own product page. The package simply bundles them as one matched shop so nothing is mismatched or forgotten, and it can be financed as a single setup.
Do you help set it up?
Absolutely. We’re screen printers ourselves — call (512) 454-0505 and we’ll help you spec your space and power, install everything, and get you printing.
